offers a way for independent grocers and national chains to offer their
customers the ability to purchase groceries through the Internet.
"Even if you have never purchased anything online before, GroceryStreet.com makes it easy to shop for groceries online," says Francie Black, President and Founder of GroceryStreet.com. "Our service allows customers to select the groceries for purchase from any Internet connected computer. They'll be bagged and ready for pick up at a preset time on the way home from the office, school, or soccer game," says Black. Black says that by offering online shopping, grocers will be able to increase customer loyalty, reach new markets, and gain competitive advantage. GroceryStreet.com offers retailers online customization, order fulfillment software, integration with existing systems, operational training and joint promotions. One of our participating grocers, Value Center Markets in Livonia, Michigan offers more than 18,000 items. GroceryStreet.com lets customers purchase everything the store has on its shelves. Shoppers are also able to search for foods based on specific health concerns they may have, such as diabetes or high cholesterol. GroceryStreet.com also offers enhanced features such as shopping by meal planners, recipes, nutritional information, specials, or more traditionally, by aisles, and the ability to save personalized shopping lists. GroceryStreet.com plans to launch additional sites in the coming weeks and will ultimately roll out a national effort.
